I'm 76. My personal dietary guideline is simple. 100% carnivore. Zero percent carbs. No diagnoses, no pills, just great health!

@dhlong1697 Ай бұрын

60, mostly carnivore since '18. Since I lift daily, I'm adding carnivore honey for the glycogen, so not zero-carb all the time. So much fitter than in middle age, ironically.

High carb centenarians. 2010 study title: "Discovery of Novel Sources of Vitamin B12 in Traditional Korean Foods from Nutritional Surveys of Centenarians." These Korean centenarians consume a high carb diet with 87% of plant foods and 13% from animal foods. They have almost no access to synthetic vitamins, supplements or fortified foods. Centenarian men take in about 1700 calories per day and about 300 grams of carbs per day. These people are set in their ways they do not play games with diets or experiment with any type of money making fad diet.

@@VerySeriousUser why would I look at a single trial when I can look at a 2022 umbrella review of 52 meta-analyses of randomizing controlled trials? Fu et al 2022 published in the journal frontiers nutrition 52 meta analyses were included with over 47,000 people. To quote the papers abstract with some abbreviations: "higher dietary fiber intake was significantly associated with reductions in parameters involving glycemic control [this is improvement]..., fasting insulin..., HOMA-IR..., HbA1c.... In terms of lipid profiles, higher dietary fiber was associated with significant reductions in serum level of total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol but not triglycerides and high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Higher dietary fiber intake was also significantly associated with improved tumor necrosis factor alpha serum levels while no significant effect was observed for c-reactive protein. Finally blood pressure was also significantly improved following dietary fiber intake." So fiber is beneficial based on meta-analysis of randomized control trials. Then we look at dose response relationships within prospective cohorts and see even further benefits including lower risk of cancers, lower risk of CVD, lower risk of type 2 diabetes, and lower risk of all cause death. These are dose dependent.

@@VerySeriousUser I would rather look at an umbrella review of 52 meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials with over 47,000 people.

Reynolds et al 2019 meta-analyzed cohort studies and showed more whole grains were associated with reduced risk for various health outcomes. This is showing health benefits. Meta-analysis of other prospective studies corroborate this finding with reduced risk of CVD, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and all cause death for more fiber in a dose dependent manner. Fiber is overwhelmingly health promoting, a single trial is not good evidence to show the true effects.

Iam surprise to see that some people find Dr. Layman unclear! Yes some of the info he is sharing is not explained in detail. It will be impossible to do it in such a short time with the ambition to cover so much material. I listened to lots of his podcasts (maybe all?) so of course I understand well what is he talking about. I am actually surprised that each time I listen to him I learn something new that I did not hear in previous recordings. Amazing scientist, how lucky we are to have such a direct access to him. Ps. I am myself a former scientist interested in nutrition, I have good memory and take notes!

Many folks in Asia don't have access to gym and also don't have access to a car. Mostly everyone dies 80-90. No point in living after that anyway.

I love all types of food. My take on food is first to eat healthy and secondly to enjoy it. For my 50% healthy carbs, 30% protein and 20% fats. Diverse food consumption. Never going back to keto because it tanked my testosterone, sleep, competitive running. Too restrictive and cultish. Implementing healthy carbs and lowering my fats improved my fasting glucose and ldl cholesterol to normal ranges. Life is good now. Keto and carnivore are restrictive and cultish.

I would ask Dr. Layman in his prioritization of protein and the either/or choice of saturated fats or carbs, depending on an individual's level of exercise, how he views the liver's ability to rid the body of it's collected toxins via the biliary pathway? Dietary fats moving into the duodenum trigger regular gallbladder bile release, thus preventing gall bladder concentrate hardening into stones. The obvious pathology of lodged gall stones are multiplied by the probable re-absorption of toxins into surrounding tissues and organs. Besides flushing toxins from the liver, bile also works to release crucial vitamins contained in dietary fats such as A, D, E and K. Breakdown of carbs in the stomach do not often require pH levels that can trigger bile as food moves to the duodenum, which not only sets up conditions for incomplete digestion, but also the infiltration of bacteria that are generally eliminated in full-strength stomach pH levels required for effective digestion of fats and protein. Incomplete digestion due to weak acid release and absent bile forces intestines into fermentation to extract bio-available nutrients, promoting bloating, gas, bacterial imbalances.

It's the diet they will stick to that helps them regulate their blood sugar, retain muscle strength, become healthier. The better you feel the more active you become and gradually weight loss is also a natural occurrence. If you do something crazy to drop, weight, as only goal probably will get the yo-yo weight issues. If you start, out on intense exercise, most give up in a couple of weeks.

We need amino acids, fatty acids and water. There's no need to consume plants of any kind. They may taste good but they all have anti-nutrients and toxic defense chemicals - neither of which should be consumed. Seems like meat (preferably fatty beef) and eggs is the optimal diet for human beings. That and resistance training is the key to optimal health and vitality based on everything I've seen, heard and read. Also, I prefer Prof. Bart Kay's view on calories.

Requirement for saturated fat? How? We can make saturated fatty acids of varying lengths, thus we do not need to consume saturated fats. We cannot make essential unsaturated omega 6 linolenic acid or omega 3 ALA so we must consume those. What evidence shows an absolute necessity for saturated fat consumption? Carbs can be stored as glycogen in muscle and the liver. Its not just fat or energy to be immediately used. What evidence is being referenced to state one needs 3 hours of intense exercise (no definition given btw either in terms of % max heart rate or METs) to justfy 300g of total daily carbs? More activity is generally a good thing but I dont achieve 3 hours of "intense" exercise daily. Risk of carbohydrates? Refined carbs? Sure, it's well know that refined carbs are deleterious to health. Fibrous carbohydrate on the other hand from whole grains or fruits and vegetables? Not risky in the slightest. Reynolds and colleagues 2019 did the largest meta-analysis on carbohydrates to date and looked at refined vs whole grain carbs and there was a dose response relationship with more whole brain carbs having more benefits. The world cancer research fund 2018 document on fruits vegetables and whole grains also shows benefits to whole grains. At the very end as the video fades out he states peoeole dont get enough protein. People in the US on average eat about 1.1g/kg of protein per day so people are not even close to deficient in protein. Achieving 1.4-1.6g/kg appears to maximize muscle growth from resistance training so this increase is not enormous. There is so much misinformation here with no nuance given to create soundbites. Its not helping to provide clarity.

Omega 6 are in animal fats with highest quality and bioavailability and without risk of oxidation. Defense mechanism, limiting human potential and health by getting the harmful toxins out first. Evoltionary developed mechanism is not here for us to thrive, but to survive, elimite toxins and allow body to thrive instead of survive. Byproduct of ketones being used as energy is not even comparible to glucose. Living vs surviving. He said 300g of carbs, than 300 kcals from carbs, I think he has no idea what he actually talks about here. Undigestable material for human body, do the study for 20 years and you have everyone dead, toxins from the undigested rotting fiber inside your colon can boost your metabolism in short term to survive, but will not hold for long. Another defense mechanism. Measurements done by man-made values is Scientology. They are using the wrong technology to measure the protein, its false. Unfortunetally, just a few things at this time of universe are scientific truth in nutrition science hamsterwheel. Creatine is healthy, astaxanthin is healthy, protein and fats are healthy (in healthy doses). All the rest is theology and you just choose what lie to believe. Simply stated, given the healthy values as dose makes the poison, which is truth, just these 4 things are scientifically proven after the study survive all the laws of racionality, human logic and empirical evidence for adequate time (human lifetime), where you end up being off BETTER with your overall health, than without these. Everything else is just belief, theology and guessing.

@@Parker_Miller_M.S. So, no difference apart from the thing I mentioned, basically. So you're claiming that these three molecules are dangerous while also not being dangerous in the slightest, because "food matrix". Neither the apple nor the apple juice is good for you although the juice is the same sugar but more concentrated. The glycemic index is kinda crappy as other factors impact the digestion of it more than the very noisy data they've gathered and called the glycemic index. To me it seems like your argument boils down to "some factors decrease the sugar uptake from some sources, which makes it not dangerous at all but sugar uptake from other sources which is usually arbitrarily higher is dangerous".

@@VerySeriousUser never claimed the molecules of different sugar types were dangerous. Straw man.
